Relationships are best dealt when you talk... Talking can reduce overthinking to an extent. At times we can feel that our significant other won't understand... But if we keep overthinking and not talk about it... things can get really complicated.

recognize your worth and communicate your feelings to your partner :) chances are they feel the same emotions but don't want to say it.

At first, ask yourself if anything of the things you overthink, can be somehow influenced or changed. Then do it promptly. If it can't be influenced or changed, then distract yourself from your overthinking by doing anything which interest you, but overthinking. Distracting yourself doesn't mean that you suppress your feelings - it only means that you don't overthink anymore and live more healthy.

Have an open discussion about anything on your mind, but make sure your partner knows you are exchanging ideas. Assumptions are usually linked to overthinking, therefore, bringing it out in the open removes overthinking and settles the matter, once you know your partners opinion, as well as your own on the matter

If there is something in your thoughts that keep coming back, and you notice that you are overthinking things, all you have to do is talk to your significant other about your worry. Usually, as you keep doing this, the worries and the overthinking eventually goes down until you feel confident and trusting of your partner.

You can start verbalising your thoughts and tell your partner about it. This may help you understand their perspective as well, and you will both strengthen your relationship.

It can be very hard to not overthink in a relationship. often times good communication can limit this, as will mindfullness.

This is a very difficult question for me to even answer. But I will do my best to try and think there's over correctly although what I may say will not or may not affect anybody else or help anybody else in any way shape or form. For myself I try to find distractions even though they are super temporary it is a lot better to have that temporary moment that you constantly figure out what it is that I keep doing wrong why is it that things are not going the way they're supposed to that's causes me to think and think and rethink and rethink things over that causes more harm and damage to a relationship then trying to make a relationship blossom in a beautiful way.

Be honest and open to deal with important thoughts and feelings. This is best done in the moment or when experiences are still raw.
